1. australians dont drink fosters ...it tastes like horse piss
and 2. no-one put shrimps on the barbie
for a start we call shrimps prawns
instead australians generally put snags (sausages) or steak on the barbie
so there you go you probably already knew that but i thought id clear it up
i drink a fair bit of beer and ive only ever drunk fosters 1 time and that was on a japanese airline

hah, i cant understand fosters' reputation as the popular australian beer. The only person I know who drinks it is my mum's stepfather (actually, its light ice...far worse. there are countless vile acts I'd hapily perform rather than having to drink this). once he forced it upon me...and since this was coupled with a pointless story about meeting Tim Costello, I was on the verge of jumping out the window. until i realised I was already outside.

2 correct Australian stereotypes.

1) They don't know the difference between a knife and a spoon and are infamously bad losers at knifey-spooney.

2) They are all a bunch of no good criminals. They're all decendants of Cockney criminals which explains a - the mysterious accent - and b - how they write such good soap operas.

e.

they must have gotten it mixed up with eb, we all know eb is austrailia's premier beer.

He's the bung Costello isn't he? Peter and Elvis are much more intresting.

maybe he was talking about e-street. there was nothing wrong with e-street. except marcus graham.

lets not get into the eb issue again. in my mind, the seven deadly (australian) sins consist of the following;

VII: Tooheys (excl draught)
VI: XXXX
V: Crown
IV: Corona
III: eb
II: basically any other premium variety
I: Fosters

no, no, no... coopers pale ale is the only way to go... or maybe crown if i'm feeling fancy (eg i want to be the secret life of us), or southwark pale if i'm feeling poor.

toohey's extra dry is good, but yet i can't see the appeal of crown, it's just too expensive for a beer that isn't anything special.
